The I4L workshops will take place at IT University of Copenhagen, on Rued Langgaards Vej, no 7, 2300 København S. Specific details on room location will be disclosed once registration has been accepted.

I4L participants are leaders who want to learn and implement new digital methods in their businesses. Applicants will be selected based on their motivation and the possibilities for carrying out their ideas subsequently.

In an article in the Harvard Business Review, John Kotter (2013) expresses his frustration with the unclear distinction between what a leader is and what a manager is. Leadership does not depend on attributes, but on behavior. Leadership is accordingly not a reflection of hierarchical emplacement, but also ones ability to bring an organization into the future, and to be a visionary, to empower one’s employees and be capable of creating change.

Kotter (2013) explains that management is focused on well-known processes, planning, and budgeting with a general emphasis placed on administrative tasks.

As part of the I4L project, we invite leaders to participate in workshops from 2017 to 2019. In addition to the three workshops, we will be in continuous dialogue with workshop participants via an online community. The dialogue and the workshops will form the basis of a final report.

I4L stands for Innovation for Leadership. It is the name of a project that has the objective to inspire leaders to enhance their leadership capacities in the digital economy. You can read more about it in our press release here.
